David Benson just released a new single "Rainbow" on his youtube page.  This is apparently the first release from his "Death to Dark, Life to Light" album that has been anticipated for several years now.

I kind of hope this is just a rough mix or something as the vocals do not seem to flow well with the music (IMHO)

There's some cool stuff going on musically, but yeah the production (not just the vocals) sounds very demo-esque to me and would be difficult to listen to for a whole album's worth.

I hope that's just a demo.

The vocals seem over processed to me.

I do want to hear more, though.

When the vocals came in I stopped listening. I've never been a huge fan of his vocals. I thought the beginning guitars were pretty good, but the mix rough. At. times I thought the vocals sounded like they were from another song put over the back tracks.

That last sentence you said there is exactly what I thought the first time listening through it.  They vocals and music just didn't seem to fit.

Did he ever address all the accusations of taking people's money but not sending them CDs/merch?  I was never aware of any repentance or resolution on that.  I'm friends with the guy on FB and he seems like a decent guy, though I'd be wary to support him because of that...

Not that I ever heard. I was watching a video interview he did with Rey Parra, and I feel like he might have made a comment that referred to it in passing. I turned it off when he started talking about A.I. being the antichrist. :/

Oh gosh, let the A.I. conspiracies start!!!!

Has anyone here tried to directly order from him and not get the product?  I know a number of people complained about this at the CMR over the years, but I don't remember knowing any/most of them with any real familiarity (like a bunch of the wackos here).

I ordered directly from him once and after 2 months of waiting and PMing him, I called him out publicly on Facebook. He sent me what I ordered and a bonus cd within 2 weeks of calling him out (but it shouldn't have had to be that way).

You're right, shouldn't have had to go through all that.
That probably explains why the few DB cd's I have were ordered through distros or in trades from other music fans.

I never had any trouble ordering from him, but I know several who did.

I finally figured out what sounds off in this song.  First, David is using too much reverb on the vocals.  It makes the vocals seem like they are trailing behind the beat.  If you tap out the beat, the vocals really might be off.
